When we took Helm's class on CFCs he talked quite a bit about using a
DAO but never provided a working example. And we haven't quite figured
out how to write an abstracted DAO that still provides the power of
highly complicated SQL queries. From the stuff we've looked at, it
seems that either we would either have to just create a dedicated CFC
wrapper for every complicated SQL query, which doesn't do much for
abstraction, or have a DAO that hammers the database over and over
with simple queries and requires a lot more application code to
assemble the results into what we need.

So I'm a little confused on DAOs. Conceptually they sound great, but
practically I just haven't figured them out.
